Serena Disrespected Trophy

I feel sure that I am not the only person to be offended by Serena Williams' crass behavior in clowning around with the Wimbledon trophy after her win on Saturday. Of course I understand that it was done in the spirit of fun, but it should have occurred to her that she was degrading an old and beloved treasure that means a lot to the tennis-loving population of both Great Britain and the United States.

With this insulting act, she has also degraded herself and tarnished the glow of her own stellar achievements.
